ABSTRACT

Perpetrators of criminal acts of corruption in Indonesia have caused enormous destruction for the survival of the nation and state. Not only is it detrimental to state finances, but the crime of corruption has also robbed the community of social and economic rights at large. If you look back at the existing regulations in the current law, especially those that regulate the imposition of capital punishment on perpetrators of criminal acts of corruption, it is regulated in Article 2 paragraph (2) of Law no. 20 of 2001 but in applying the death penalty to corruptors it is difficult to enforce so that research is needed regarding this article, corruption is a crime that is very difficult to eradicate, because it is often carried out systematically and involves people in power. We too can feel how great and extraordinary the danger posed by this crime. The methodology used in this study is a normative juridical research method. The focus of this article is how is the policy of implementing the death penalty law against perpetrators of corruption and how is the death penalty in the perspective of criminal law reform. So it is natural that the crime of corruption is classified as an extraordinary crime that must be eradicated in an extraordinary way, one of which is by punishing the perpetrators of corruption in this country to death.
